Montreal Canadiens vs Winnipeg Jets: Jets will win on a tough away trip

Prediction for the NHL Montreal Canadiens vs Winnipeg Jets match, which will take place on April 12. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Montreal Canadiens

Montreal, a finalist in the last Stanley Cup, has had a disappointing regular season. It took the Canadiens a very short time to go from being the best team in the Eastern Conference to the worst, but there was a good reason for that: injuries and covid losses never made it possible for the Red and Blue to play at their optimal level. That means that Montreal is the last team in the standings in the East.

Winnipeg Jets

Winnipeg is another team that has had a very weak regular season, forcing them to fire Paul Maurice, but Dave Lowry has gradually improved the situation. The Jets had a strong March, when they managed nine wins and three losses in 12 games. With the beginning of April, the problems returned as the Blues and Whites lost a 4-match series, which could be broken only the day before, when they beat Ottawa 4:3 in a hard-fought game. A string of defeats dropped Winnipeg to 11th place in the Western Conference standings, but it will now be extremely difficult to reduce their gap from the top 8.

Expert Betting Tips

Montreal and Winnipeg are two Canadian teams with a weak regular season, but the difference is that the Red and Blue have long since lost their play-off chances, while the Jets still have a chance of making it into the top 8 of the West. With that in mind, we suggest betting on a Winnipeg win for 2.38.

Montreal and Winnipeg are still producing an entertaining season for sports fans. The Jets have scored 456 goals (6.25 goals per game average) in 73 games, while the Canadiens have produced 465 goals (6.46 goals per game average) in 72 games. Therefore, we suggest betting on a total over 6.5 for 1.995.

Pierre-Luc Dubois is still a junior hockey player, but he is in his fifth full season in the NHL. In the current regular season, he's already amassed 54 points (26 goals + 28 assists) in 72 regular-season games. The 23-year-old Canadian is just seven points away from a personal best. Obviously, he's in great shape, so it's worth betting on Pierre-Luc Dubois Total Over 0.5 for 1.57.
